Simple LEGO creation goes viral

Twitter has been sharing a twelve year old’s unique LEGO creation far and wide.

Joel Willans, from Finland, Tweeted a picture of a selection of LEGO competition entries, with twelve year old Riley’s entry standing out from the crowd – but not so much for its display of build proficiency.

Riley’s entry was a 1×4 brick, labelled ‘worm’.

The Huffington Post reported the 70,000 – now having climbed to over 80,000 – retweets that the image received, as Twitter users saw the appeal of this ballsy approach to entering a build contest:

There’s a great future in marketing waiting for you, Riley!
